And also shibo in "famous" Black Magda slip glaze...btw we are slowly running out of this clay-glaze and will have to make a trip to other side of our small country to dig for some new, bigger, stockpile. Nice obligation... I will take some pictures of that place and share them with you, it is quite interesting place.

Just had a pleasant session of some Yunnan black tea, brewed in a wonderful little shiboridashi set from Petr's last 2011 firing. I'm very late with sharing this but better late than never, right?I also got a cute little tea pot of his that I'll try to share eventually as well

It holds about 60 ml and not only looks and feels great but also works flawlessly. I'm very happy with it.

It's remarkable how much I like the various styles of Petr's teawares. I'm saved from a buying frenzy only by a calming session with tea brewed in one of my new shiboridashi (commissioned after my first failed a sudden impact test vs tile floor)

and using one of the new yuzamashi for cooling and avoidance of scorched tongue syndrome

and drinking from one of the new cups

And they do play well with others, mixing and matching with other teaArtisan acquisitions

and that allows me to resist the lures of the Black Magda glaze a little longer.....
